Chapter 2: Moving forward
After the disruption of the new queen's coronation most of the citizens in Tristain have been brought back to normal and the encounter of Daido aka Kamen Rider Eternal was kept in the queen Henrietta's trusted circle between her, Agnes and her squad along with Peter, Louise, Kirche, Tabitha and Colbert...
I was next to Louise as she held a small book given to her by the new queen and was still confused at the item
"Don't think too hard on the empty pages Louise" I spoke "the queen said that the spell will reveal itself if the situation is necessary"
"Yes Peter" she nodded "I still have trouble believing that this book is from the founder himself..."
Ah yes, Brimir the first mage aka the founder of magic. I still felt surprised that the first mage in this world was of the void element. But considering that he held great power in his life, there was no doubt void was his first discovery...
"Darling" Kirche hugged my arm "I don't want to feel alone, can you accompany me for the afternoon?"
I gulped at Kirche's plea and looked at my master to see her still stoic before turning to Zerbst "can't Tabitha be with you?"
"Sadly she planned to stay in the library when we returned" she huffed
"Louise..." I called
"I'll allow it" she replied "I need some privacy for this afternoon"
"Okay Kirche" I sighed not having any more alternatives "you can have my company"
The fire mage cheered at my response before turning to her rival "I am thankful Valliere" she smiled "I promise to control my actions to not sway him today"
That response made me blink in surprise. I believe that Kirche would gloat at her chance on getting me, perhaps my meddle in her life and the war against Reconquista changed her for the better
At least a starting point for her to get better anyway...
Kirche and I said goodbye to Louise before going to the vestri court for lunch because...
Grumble
I just felt hungry since my battle against Daido this morning used up much of my energy after Henrietta became queen in her kingdom...
Luckily Siesta was around with a couple of maids helping her today, I was seated by them with Kirche beside me as a tray of food was placed on our table
I did hear a huff from the maid as her fellows tried to calm her down at seeing Kirche hug my arm
"Darling" Kirche called as she looked at me with warm eyes "are you enjoying today's warmth?"
Normally the girl would try her usual seduction technique on me. Yet here she was not to doing that...
"Yes Kirche" I answered "I am enjoying the warmth today" before placing my hand "both from the sun and you"
Kirche sighed with a smile before she leaned against my touch. We stayed like this before eating, enjoying the taste and the quiet atmosphere around us...
But then I heard a coo at my feet. I looked down to see Kirche's familiar looking at us
"Flame?" I blinked "did you get hungry again?"
The salamander nodded and his master looked embarrassed
"I apologize that I did not properly feed you this morning" she fidgeted "but I do not have the time now thanks to darling today"
The fire salamander whined at that and I felt bad for him... so I took the remaining food on my plate and gave it to the salamander
"Eat up Flame" I smiled "enjoy your meal"
The salamander immediately ate the remains and after he finished. He went up to my leg and rubbed his head against me
"Careful there" I laughed and patted Kirche's familiar "I still have yet to get spares of my own clothing"
"Would you like to visit Quinn later darling?" Kirche asked "I'm sure she would love to see you again"
And we went off to the village to visit the tailor and I was surprised that Quinn already made extras of my custom clothes. She said it was a thank you for bringing in customers to her shop and her business boomed after they said it was me to find her
No doubt Scarron and his fairies requested a set of their uniforms to help new recruits and keep up business
I wonder if they were able to grow their business yet?
After receiving my gift from the tailor. We walked around the area and decided to do some shopping a bit...Kirche took me to a jewelry store and presented some recommendations for my appearance and even wished to pay for them herself
But I declined, saying that the gifts she will buy will be for a later time due to us starting our date together...
Oh I just hope Louise won't get jealous after some days when her rival keeps asking for my company
We made it back to Tristain academy and Kirche had the brightest smile on her face
"Today was wonderful darling" the girl spoke "I had a wonderful time and it brings me joy that you are in my presence"
"I'm glad Kirche" I smiled and combed my fingers through her red locks "and to see you enjoy yourself is a sight to behold"
"Oh darling..." she sighed at my words before regaining focus "I almost forgot something important"
Chu
I blinked at feeling a warm sensation on my cheek, I looked at Kirche as her face turned slightly red before turning away
"My thank you for your company Peter" was her final say before dashing into the academy
I rubbed my cheek and blinked owlishly at her retreating form
'I really did change her...' was my thought before going to Louise's room for a good night sleep
It was night time and the queen of Tristain was in her private room and the twin moons shined in the sky. She was looking at a jeweled box and opened revealing her water ring that she vowed with her deceased love Wales
"Wales" she muttered clutching her ring tightly "I miss you so much..."
Her memories of the lost prince were still fresh, she remembered their vow to be together at Lagdorian Lake 3 years ago
'The water ring of Tristain' his words echoed in her mind 'and the wind ring of Albion when united it creates a wonderful rainbow...'
But then her thoughts stopped when she noticed someone on her balcony and upon looking closer...her eyes widen
'Wales...?'
She went out to see her beloved alive and well as his smile was present before her
"Greeting Henrietta" the man spoke
"It's really you...!" the queen of Tristain felt her tears well up
"Yes Henrietta" the prince of Albion smiled
"B-but-!" the queen stepped back "you aren't supposed to be here...!" her mind was frantic seeing her beloved and couldn't think properly
Suddenly her royal ring glowed and she looked at her beloved's hand and saw his ring ring glow as well. Her mind then went the memory of Lagdorian Lake and the vow they shared together...
"Henrietta" Wales spoke "I'm going to Albion"
"No!" the queen grabbed her love "you cannot!" she cried "if you go, they will kill you!"
"I must" he responded "for it is my duty as prince of Albion"
The young man grabbed her shoulders and stared at her eyes "Henrietta..." he said calmly "will you join me in my task?"
The queen of Tristain said nothing but internally she has made up her mind...she wished to be with him...
The two royals stared at each other before leaning in to share a kiss under the moonlight
The next day Agnes went to Tristain Academy to get aid and she went to the only trusted individuals that could help her
"Her highness is kidnapped...!?" Louise spoke at hearing it feeling worry well up in her
"Yes" the leader of the Musketeer squad sighed "I'm at fault for not staying close to her"
"Don't blame yourself" I interjected "queen Henrietta is still grieving from losing her other love" I rubbed my face 'and I've no doubt that he still has the ring of Andvari'
I swore to the water spirit to retrieve that ring and return it. Cromwell was again using it to pursue his delusional grandeur
And it sickens me that innocent lives has to pay for an evil man's ambition...!
'Prince Wales...' my thoughts went to royal man of Albion 'if you truly are used against your will...please fight that ring's control, for I know you are not a selfish man that will ruin the homes in Tristain...'
"Has your squad started searching for her?" I asked
"They are patrolling as I speak" Agnes nodded "it's best that the mission isn't publicized...the kingdom will be in panic if word get's out"
'No doubt the retired queen has personally requested this' I hummed 'I hope that we can find her before Henrietta is swayed to her aching heart...'
At the vestri court, Colbert and Matilda finished moving the dragon's raiment out of the warehouse as Louise and I are inside the cockpit and she squirmed a bit on my lap
"Trying to be comfy Louise?" I asked
"This isn't helpful" the young Valliere groaned "but Henrietta needs to be saved! I will endure..."
I smiled at her, she may still have her pride as a Valliere. But she has a heart that will grow strong and people; commoner or noble will acknowledge that
"Remember now" Colbert called "try not to get yourselves in heavy danger!"
"We will professor" she called "and we trust you with watching Matilda until we return!"
And the two of us went to the sky leaving the professor and our charge with him
"I hope those two will be okay..."
"You worry too much" Matilda sighed "they will be fine, they did stop Reconquista from invading Tristain after all..."
"Yes" the man nodded "I should put more faith in them"
Neither did the two realize that Kirche and Tabitha heard them and decided to follow the two in their mission and provide aid
"Tabitha" the fire mage looked to her friend
"Will follow" the wind mage responded "bring your familiar"
At the forest to Lagdorian Lake, Wales was on horseback holding the queen of Tristain and she was enjoying his company
"Wales..." she gripped his clothes "don't leave me"
"I won't" he smiled "we will be together"
Sadly their moment was interrupted as a pair of horses came by pursuing them
"The queen has been found!" a musketeer soldier called "commencing pursuit!"
"Looks like there are people that doesn't wish for our union" Wales spoke getting Henrietta to react
She pulled out her scepter and casted a water spell making the pursuers scatter
I kept my hand on the lever keeping my transportation steady
"Peter..." Louise called
"We'll find her Louise" I said not distracting myself "the queen will not be taken away!"
Wales and Henrietta was able to shake off their pursuers and was about to celebrate but heard a sound in the sky. They looked up seeing the dragon's raiment above them!
"So the hero of Tristain is also in disagreement" the prince of Albion narrowed his eyes "Is there no one wishing for our unity...?"
The queen of Tristain instinctively cast her spell again aimed at the dragon in the sky
Boom
We shook in our seat as the plane's left wing now had a hole
"Found them" I tightened my grip on the lever "don't let go Louise, this will be rough...!"
The two royals watched the dragon's raiment descend a good distance away and both felt satisfied that no more distractions were in the way
How wrong that was...
A stream of flame came at them and Wales reacted with using his wind magic to block it making his horse jump and force the riders off
In the sky Kirche, Flame and Tabitha were on Sylphid as the salamander used his flame again to distract the prince as they get closer
"That's it Flame! Keep attacking them" the fire mage called
"Go down" the wind mage said to her dragon as they got closer to the lake
I groaned after feeling the impact of the crash and Louise was the same but thankfully we landed in the water so Colbert won't have to worry about seeing heavy damaged. We both climbed out of the dragon and saw a clash of water, wind and fire
"What's happening?" my master blinked at the spells going against each other
"Kirche and Tabitha" I spoke knowing those two would get involved before I placed my acceldriver on me "they decided to follow us"
"WHAT!?"
"No time Louise" I pulled out my memory "we have to stop queen Henrietta from leaving!"
Accel
"Hen...shin!"
Accel
The battle between the two students and royals was intense... Flame was already knocked out by Wales wind spell and Sylphid took the salamander to safe from the fight to recover
"Tch!" Kirche used her magic to halt a water spell aimed at her "my skill is still meager to the power of a royal..." she turned to her friend "ready with the spell Tabitha?"
The wind mage nodded as she created icicle spikes above her and aimed it at the prince. With a wave of her arm they rained down at the two royals
The prince of Albion quickly used his wind magic to block the oncoming attack and the queen was still hesitant on going for the offensive
"Do not worry" Wales spoke "I will not force you into battle yet" he smiled at her "please take your time as I handle the nuisance"
"Can't you go faster?!" Louise screamed as she felt worried for the queen
"This is fast as I can get without you falling!" I replied "I don't want you left behind as when I reach them!"
The battle between the royals and students has reached it's conclusion. Kirche and Tabitha were on the ground with the latter heavily injured and the former was on her knees panting heavily
'Not good...' she looked up to see Wales wrap his arm around his lover 'darling, please stop them...' and she passed out of exhaustion
"Now that the nuisance is taken cared of" he smiled "let us enjoy our company together away from Tristain"
"OH NO YOU DON'T!"
The two royals turned to the shout to see Peter and Louise arrive with the latter jumping off the former as they stood before them
"Your highness!" the Valliere called to her friend "please don't follow that man! You are being deceived...!"
Henrietta was not listening as she went to Wales' side and glared at her friend
"I'm sorry Louise" she raised her wand "I've decided to be with my love"
"You heard her Valliere" Wales wrapped his arm around her, both held the scepter aiming at the girl used their magic together to attack...!
I jumped in using Derf to block the magic attack
"You tried Louise..." I grunted as my sword absorbed the spell "she is lost to her delusion" I kept my guard up "you try to keep yourself from being harmed as I distract them!"
I ran toward the tow royals but an ice wall stopped and it created a spike near me before cut the sharp tip in front of me before stabbing my sword on the ground and going to the wall
"Queen Henrietta...!" I shouted banging my fist against the ice "are you really sure that you will leave your kingdom?"
"Yes..." she nodded not wanting to be apart from Wales "my love has returned to me"
I growled that she willingly leave her home, friends and family behind to be with Wales. And then I blinked at the memory of my time in Albion before turning to the dead prince
"Wales!" I shouted again "is this what you really desire!?" I glared at him "to take the queen away?!"
"Yes" he nodded "nothing brings me greater joy than being with my love..."
At least their feelings for each other is real...but I can't let this happen! Henrietta will make her mother, best friend and kingdom sad!
So I decided to risk it...
"What about our contract in Albion your highness?" I questioned "your request that I protect your love from harm...?"
The queen of Tristain blinked at hearing this, she turned to her love and saw his eyes widen
"Wales?"
She was then pushed away by the prince of Albion as he remembered Peter's words clutching his head in pain
"Your highness!" Agnes came into view with her sword drawn to fight against the dead prince
"Yes Wales!" I encouraged "fight against the one controlling you! Do not deceive your heart and be selfish!" I then turned to the musketeer captain "hurry Agnes! Get the queen a safe distance away!"
Wales struggled against the magic control as his body glowed purple trying to keep the energy at bay. I turned to Louise as she was able to move her body now
"Louise!" I shouted to her "wake Kirche up and help her carry Tabitha away!"
The Valliere nodded at the task and started going to her rival and help her
I went for the throttle and twist it using my memory's power
Vroom!
My body glowed red and I punched through the ice wall shattering it to pieces as the prince of Albion still fought against the magic he was in
'Wales, I know this is the last thing you would ever do...!' I balled my hands tight 'when you are free again, I hope your words to queen Henrietta would be calming...'
I reached for my acceldriver again and squeezed the handbrake
Accel Maximum Drive
My body blazed aflame and I jumped forward delivering a spinning heel kick to the prince of Albion
Boom
An explosion came sending the prince of Albion flying back as his crashed against a tree
"Wales!" Henrietta tried to get to her love but was stopped by Agnes
"No your highness!" she grabbed her arm "you can't be with him yet...!"
I looked at the body to see both his wounds and clothes getting fixed. No doubt the ring has granted the body regeneration...I quickly grabbed Derflinger and inserted a Gaia memory
Ice age Maximum Drive
And stabbed the prince on his still healing body and froze him in place leaving only his head untouched
"I'm sorry this happened to you" I sighed
"It isn't..." the prince of Albion uttered "your fault..."
Splash!
I was pushed away by a water spell and rolled against the grass to see Henrietta looking angry and worried
"Do not harm my beloved...!" the queen of Tristain shouted as she went to the body while Agnes groaned as she tried her best to stand up
'That woman has the resolve...' I groaned picking Derf up again
"She's really sure in staying with her lover" my sword hummed "oh by the way, I found our culprit. He's hiding behind the tree beside Kirche, Tabitha, Louise and their familiars
Instinctively I raised my sword and stabbed the ground unleashing a torrent of ice spikes to the tree next to said beings and heard a scream as a man jumped out and revealed himself
It was none other than Cromwell...!
"Cromwell!" most gaped at seeing the man outside his imprisonment
"I knew you had a hand in this..." I turned to see his glowing ring "I'll make sure to free the prince from your control!"
"You won't get me Gandalf!" the maniac stood up "for I have new power...!"
I blinked in confusion at his words before gasping as he pulled out a Gaia memory...!
Puppeteer
The item floated before moving to the man's throat and he transformed into a humanoid monster with a violet spikey head and claws wearing a simple white jacket and black pants
Cromwell became the puppeteer Dopant...!
He waved his arms and strings came out of his hands going toward Wales' body and the prince broke out of his ice prison ready to fight again!
"Do you see now?" Cromwell cackled in mad glee "I am powerful...! For I control the queen's beloved and will use him to rule my land!"
"Wales..." Henrietta fell to her knees as her lover went beside the monster
"Agnes!" I called blocking the prince's wind spell with Derflinger "get the queen out of this fight and hide her...!" I pulled out the Ice age memory and replaced it with the Engine memory
Engine
Jet
And swung my sword deflecting another wind spell
"You will not win Cromwell!" I declared "your plans are flawed!"
"And what makes you say that...?" the Dopant growled
"I have a void mage as my master" I turned to Louise "she can get stop your spell on Wales!"
Louise blinked at her familiar's words before realizing that she still had the book her queen gave her. She pulled it out of and saw the item open itself to reveal a spell for her to chant
I continued to deflect the winds going at me and started to pant feeling body start to tire from the prince's spells
'I can't keep up any longer!' I turned to see Louise still chanting 'better hope that spell will help us!'
I rolled away from another wind attack and pulled out my trial memory 'I'll make sure to have him target only me!'
Trial
And placed it into my acceldriver
Trial
My armor changed and I ran around the two keeping them distracted as the winds couldn't touch me for the moment
Louise finished her spell and raised her wand and cast her spell
At first it was nothing, but then Wales fell on the ground signifying that he was not in Cromwell's control
"WHAT!?" the puppeteer Dopant used his strings again but it had no effect on the body
"Like I said Cromwell" I pulled out the trial memory "your plans are flawed..."
Click
I tossed my memory forward and ran to Cromwell to deliver my finisher at him!
Kirche and Tabitha watched the fight near it's outcome. The former smiled seeing her darling beat the pathetic man. The latter groaned but was awake to see her friend deliver his attack
Henrietta was on her knees feeling both sadness and relief that her Wales will be free from the man's control.
Agnes on the other hand had her eyes wide at seeing Peter continue his attack with a glowing blue T symbol appear on Cromwell's body 'so this is the power her highness spoke of...' she thought 'I might need to visit the academy and see that magic again'
I stopped my attack and grabbed my trial memory
Trial Maximum Drive
Boom!
Cromwell changed back to his original self as he was covered in bruises and his proud robes damaged before dying right there with the puppeteer memory beside him
Henrietta was able to get movement back and she ran to her fallen beloved as he struggled with his now shortened life
"Wales..." the queen of Tristain held he loves hand as he looked at her
"Henrietta" he looked at her with sad eyes "forgive me on deceiving you..." he gasped "I did not wish to blind you of your life as ruler in the kingdom"
"Do not worry Wales" tears forming in her eyes "we will get you a healer so you can live again"
"No" he shook his head "I died trying to protect my beliefs back in Albion and I deceived the queen of Tristain" his wounds from his last stand returned "I have no right to live...Henrietta, can you make me a promise?"
"Anything" she held his hand tightly
"Promise me...that you will forget me" he requested making her gasp "I shouldn't be blessed by your love, after the horrid deed today" he looked at her sadly "so please forget me and find a new love in your life"
All of us had wide eyes. The prince's last request to his love was to move on without him! He truly is a caring man... but to have such wonder lose life so soon can give an opposite reaction
"Wales, you know I can't promise that...!" she hiccupped as her tears were now falling "I don't want you to leave me!"
"Yes I do" the dying prince smiled weakly before turning to me "Peter...please come here"
I walked to the royals and kneeled before them as the prince looked at me with sad eyes
"I want to apologize..." he gasped again "for breaking the contract... we formed in Albion..."
I grasped his hand and still felt his warmth as he struggled on his words
"It never broke your highness..." I assured "Cromwell deluded himself to grandeur believing that he was better than you"
The prince felt relief and raised his left hand presenting his ring
"Then let us form another one" he smiled one more time "I want you to take the ring of Albion as the seal and..." he coughed "protect my beloved...in my stead"
Everyone around me gasped at hearing the request...they could not believe that the prince would give away his royal item on this contract
"Wales!" Henrietta wanted to deny that request but her voice got stuck when he saw her lover kept his arm up
"I accept" I grabbed his ringed hand "I will not have your death be in vain" and removed the royal item from him "be assured that your beloved has people who love her and care for her like you have..."
Wales kept his smile at me "I am...glad that...we met...that time...Pe...ter..." the warmth he carried until now has been put out
And the prince of Albion passed away being held by queen Henrietta in Lagdorian Lake. The place where both royals have bonded with their love...
The queen of Tristain continued to grieve, the others were silent to respect the prince's passing. A pair of robed individuals watched everything that happened in Lagdorian Lake
"That Cromwell" the first sighed "he used his only chance to get himself killed even with your gift Daido"
"That is what happens to single-minded goals Sheffield" the second hummed "he already planned to be a conqueror, but failed to see that structure and planning is necessary" he then turned to his partner "we should go back to Gallia, the report today would be interesting to your master and not receive punishment for failure"
"Yes" the lady used her magic to summon a flying creature and both flew off to give their report of Cromwell's failure and death
I watched Louise and Agnes comfort the queen of Tristain on her loss. I saw Kirche keep Tabitha on her feet as Flame and Sylphid stayed with them looking sad, then gazing at the ring of Albion before going to Cromwell's corpse and took the ring of andvari before throwing it to the lake returning it to the water spirit
'I wish the queen's mother can help her with this loss...' was my only thought as I looked at the royal crying her heart out on losing her lover yet again
No matter what happens now... all of us will have to move forward and create a future to live in peace
To be continued...
Author's notes:
Okay I'm back into writing my Accel story and if you noticed, season 2's chapters are much shorter than season 1
That's because I've thought on focusing on main points of the story and make some filler chapters to make character development so the would at least be a nice read (meaning no Louise making explosions in jealousy and hopefully she along with others gets a chance to relax...)
Even though it has been a while that I've updated this one... I plan to focus on this one until the end of the season and hopefully I can keep your interest up since it has been years now from the starting point of Accel s2...
Oh and since the villain was allied with the tyrant king of Gallia...I figured Daido and his group would be in good business terms with Sheffield since her magic is for spying and sabotage while Joseph gets interesting situations to his boring life as the king of the neutral land
Now for an extra scene...
W vs Eternal
Henrietta was made queen of Tristain and her bodyguard Agnes was riding beside her and the musketeer squad a short distance away from them
"I'm surprised everyone in Tristain is her to see her" I blinked at the crowd around
"Who wouldn't" Louise huffed "her highness is beloved by all in the kingdom!"
I smiled at her enthusiasm and we saw the queen wave at us and so we waved back at her
However this coronation isn't staying smooth
Bang!
A shot was heard making the people panic and Agnes was struck on her and it ricocheted to the members of the squad making them fall of theor horses
'What happened...?' I thought before looking at Louise who ran to her friend's carriage "Louise!"
Eternal
I froze at the word and looked up to see an armored figure dropped down from the sky making my eyes wide!
Kamen rider Eternal is in this world too...!
"Y-you stay away from her highness!" Louise casted a spell at the stranger and created an explosion
BOOM!
But when the smoke dispersed the armored being unharmed!
"I applaud your bravery young one, but you can't interfere with this" he pulled out his dagger and inserted his memory in the slot
Eternal Maximum Drive
The queen and her friend felt a surge of power on their bodies before falling to the ground while the Musketeer squad surrounded Eternal with drawn swords
"For assault of the queen, you are hereby under arrest!" Agnes declared
"Such responsible guards" he raised hand "but you lot aren't in my interest" and snapped his fingers
Bang!
Another shot was heard and the musketeer squad was struck again by a ricochet shot
"But how...?" Agnes groaned as she and her squad was all struck on the back despite wearing armor making their attempt to fight useless
"I have an associate that knew your queen well" Eternal spoke "and he's coming right now"
Another figure arrived and the queen had wide eyes
"Matthew...?" she blinked "is that really you Matthew?"
"It is your highness" he replied "but I cannot be with you anymore...for I have lost my purpose when I did my duty to protect your kingdom"
I can't stay still anymore! I ran to the battle pulling my Gaia memory and doubledriver
"Henshin!"
Cyclone Joker
My armor formed and used the cyclone memory to boost my movement to strike against Eternal who dodged and I hit the ground instead...
"Urgh! I should've expected that..." I grunted pulling my foot out "you're a powerful and skilled being Eternal..."
"I see you know of me" Eternal hummed as he twirled his dagger "and just the person I was looking for... Kamen Rider W"
"Peter!" I heard Louise shout and turned to see her stand up again and raised her wand
But when she cast her spell...there was no explosion...
"What the?" she tried and got the same result
Nothing...
"I should explain" Eternal hummed "when you used your spell against me, I know how powerful you are young Valliere" he said with mirth "so I decided to make you and the queen not interfere"
"What are you saying!?" she and the queen shouted in distraught
"I removed your ability to use magic" was his answer to them
Henrietta and Louise fell to their knees at that and was stunned into silence making Agnes and her go to them leaving me to fight against the leader of NEVER
"You're not getting away with this!" I closed my doubledriver and replace my memories for a different set
Heat Metal
The two sides of my body changed color and I took my metalshaft and and went for the attack
Eternal dodged my swings easily, no doubt his mercenary work made it second nature
"You are good W" my enemy praised me "but I have to cut this fight short"
He grabbed my weapon and pulled making me off balance to be attacked
Wham!
Baff!
I was struck twice and flew back before hitting the ground, I stood up again but felt my footing loosen as his hits were hard
"I'm not going down yet!" I pulled out my metal memory and inserted it into my staff
Metal Maximum Drive
Fire ignited on my weapon as I readied myself to attack
"Not bad" Eternal hummed before turning to his partner "Matt?"
"Yes sir" the gunner pulled out a T2 Gaia memory
Trigger
He inserted it into the chamber of his trigger magnum
Trigger Maximum Drive
Before aiming it at me
"Metal branding!"
I moved forward swing my weapon down and Matt fired his shot making our attacks collide
BOOM!
Heavy winds rushed in the area as everyone hid from the clash
When it stopped they looked in shock to see their hero on his back breathing heavily while Eternal and Matt were still standing
"It was a good effort W" Eternal spoke "but we have overstayed our welcome" he turned to his partner "let's leave Matt"
"Yes master Daido"
"Wait!" I called while struggling to get on my feet "just what are you planning Daido!?"
"Oh nothing yet" he hummed "I was simply here to see the queen of Tristain and have my associate see her that is all"
And the two walked away leaving a scared crowd, a defeated hero of Tristain and a distraught ruler calming her friend with the Musketeer squad making an attempt to calm the masses
